  • Ok, I was just watching videos of Super Smash Bros. Brawl....

    How the sweep jumping crap did I get here????

  • I'm making one of these for my dad for Christmas because he wants a rug made out of jeans and I had been collecting jeans to make quilts, but they tend to be too heavy, so I started making one of these rugs. Then I decided to see if there were and videos so I could see how other people were doing it. I think I will stick with my way of doing it, though.

  • I had just googled this, saw all parts. Also, I could crochet this? Hmm. I'm going to ask friends, family to give me old jeans.

  • I LOVE THIS! I'm visually impaired, and not at all crafty, but I totally think I can do this. Have always wanted to, but thought I needed a loom or something. THANK YOU for uploading and explaining so well.

  • does anyone know where i can find the segament on the actual sewing/binding? i saw her boar the hole in the stick, and after that i'm missing one segment!! the most important one!!

  • @Karkaraff You can get jeans worth using at yard sales, thrift shops, flea markets and places like Goodwill. Or, you can ask for jeans on Freecycle. :)

  • 0:56 sounds like a different person. o.O

  • @Karkaraff

    yeah, but you could just use old pairs that don't fit or you don't like anymore. :)

  • Looks cool....but kind of too expensive. My jeans cost $30 a pair, so it'd cost $150 to make the rug.

  • it's best rug!!! : textil.blog.hu
